Definitely by train so my wife and I can enjoy the scenery without having to concern ourselves with stopping or driving.

Cars, I don't mind driving and I like to see how got to the place that I am going. I hate planes and I think I only ever traveled by train once.

I don't like flying, but I've only ever flown in business or economy. Maybe first class would be better. I like train travel because it's so easy to fall asleep, but my favorite is road trips as long as I have a cd player. It's way too boring without one and you can't depend on the radio.

I have traveled extensively by all of the mentioned car, train and plane modes of transportation.  And with each there are pluses and minuses.  Since most folks have expressed no knowledge of trains I will attempt to fill in the blanks.  A long distance train is different than a commuter train based on distance traveled so we will also concentrate on that.  There are two different ways to travel by train.  Coach and 1st class.  Coach you get a seat and it folds out like a lounge chair and you sleep on it.  You have to buy or bring your meals.  First Class you get a seat and it usually folds out into a full bed depending on your the first cass passage you purchase.  It includes your meals and a small shower is usually available.  If you are traveing by train do not been in a hurry cause it really won't matter.  The train gets there within a few hours of it's schedule it's a good day.  The big benefit to train travel is meeting folks and viewing the country that you will not see in a plane or if you are driving.   I think overall the best train trip is the empire builer through the rocky mountains.

I have never been on a plane, I have been on a train and I always took something to read or do puzzles while riding. but I found that driving is my best choice because I can stop when I want or need to stop. and if you have cruise control it makes it a little easier. but I prefer not to use it. I suggest to drive no more than 4 hours at a time and to break for a sandwich or dinner. I learned that when I drove a semi. That is why they make drivers stop after a certain amount of hours because the body is unable to do it. I hope that helps you.

What would your option be, car, train plane. I have been on long trips in a car, but I can't drive for long hours, but I can be a passenger, although that is exhausting as well. I've never been on a train, but I would like to try it and I've only been on a plane once and I am terrified of heights.

What's your choice?????????? :wave: :female:
I would choose a car because of the most control over what it happening to me

Oh, I like to fly, without question.  I can hardly stand long car trips anymore at all.  As for trains, I've never been on one, but would like to ride one sometime
